Lloyd Banks - The Course Of The Inevitable (Discussion Thread)

[Redwing80]

Stranger Things is definitely talking about 50.

"If I aint never have your back I'm either dead or I'm sick
When you're fukked up, behaviour gets irregular quick
Sometimes the pressure overwhelms when you're the head of the clique
But don't get ahead of yourself
I aint bending for shyt"

"Never bite the hand that feeds you
thats disrespectful
But what if what's in the hand deceives you
Now you're regretful
I brought integrity in every area the jet flew
It's like I see a stranger, nothing like when I met you"

"Call me quiet, call me lazy talent never faded
Its frustrating when you're grinding ain't appreciated"

Best song on the project by the way. Damn near every line was a jewel

yeah I honestly don’t even see him getting the 30 but like you said if he can surprise us and chart decently it would be dope.

He waited too long to drop a project, i think if this was a few years earlier he definitely would've charted way higher.

its sad to see too

i get why 50 is disappointed cause even as a fan, im disappointed too. Banks should have been AT LEAST Fab status right now in terms of fame

yes hes given us great music regardless and hes also said he doesnt care about fame but man i would have loved to see banks super famous

And thats exactly why banks is mad, he always stood by 50 side in any beef, and never said anything bad about him. just cause he doesnt want to work how 50 wants him to, hes getting hated on by 50

his biggest missed opportunity was not capitalizing after HFM2

industry backing, GOOD music etc that was the prime time to deliver

I think when he drops Cold Corner 3 it's going to do really well, this is just he warm up record.

It’s time we have a talk about commitment
I though with that everything would be different
I’m trying to lead you in direction thought if I give you some space things would get better, but they didn’t
The line between reality, you gotta know the difference
Important that you separate what is from what isn’t
There’ll never be progress if it ain’t no room to listen
One minute its calm, next minute you trippin’

@Big dikk lisyed them, but just to add some context.

The ones from 2011 to now are the ones most similar to the new release, after he moved from the punchline style, and they all have original production.

FNO is my favorite, and most people seem to prefer that one and Cold Corner 2 (with CC2 usually getting the edge over FNO).

The general consensus on the 2011-current tapes are that Halloween Havoc 2 and 3 are probably the weakest. AON sounds like a good extension of FNO, and V6 is sort of its own style, and it’s got a big cult following too.

V5 is 2009, so I didn’t mention that one. It’s a fun listen because you can hear him transitioning from the punchline style to his current style.

Had to listen to this on dat piff smh

not on YouTube music

This is just a general statement, and I’m not trying to single you out.

Im just real surprised that big music heads like you don’t do Apple Music. It’s the best of all worlds. You get everything streaming, and you can also sync it with iTunes and have every mp3 you’d like on there. Half my Apple Music catalogue is music that’s not on streaming.

I know some people like Spotify, tidal, Amazon, and YouTube music…but for me I just love that Apple Music allows you to play non streaming content, and you can mix streaming and non streaming music into the same albums and playlists.

Smoke and Mirrors is a masterpiece

 

[Redwing80]

The problem isn't the amount of tracks but the length of songs. 5 minutes tracks and shyt. Break Me Down didn't need to be 3 verses
